Do the suns give up ayton or just chris paul and a pick? Do the Heat give up herro or just lowry and a pick?
You only get beal if he's the piece away and you have no other ways to improve. Will kill you in tax money tho

Beal and KD would be cool to see. Rather not have Miami get him.

Unless Wizards get Ayton back as a trade piece to flip, they're not getting a great deal from Phoenix. What a mess they created with how they handled Beal.

Windhorst said Wiz May just want to get out of Beal’s deal and trade him for cheap. Suns could end up trading CP3 and Shamet for him. Heat could trade Lowry + filler. My guess is he goes to Miami where he’d be a better fit + genuine contender + no state income tax + closer to home.

His best years are behind him. Even at his best he was just a one dimensional player. I find it odd how many teams are in love with the stars of the past. Can you pay this guy to be your 3rd or 4th option?

The Washington Wizards are in serious talks with the Miami Heat and the Phoenix Suns in a trade for Bradley Beal, league sources told The Athletic on Saturday. Here’s what you need to know:
The Athletic reported earlier this week that the Wizards and Beal were working together to find a trade that would send the All-Star to a contending team if the organization decided to pursue a rebuild.
League sources also told The Athletic this week that the Suns and Chris Paul were exploring options to move the guard, either by trade or waiving.
Beal averaged 23.2 points, 5.4 assists and 3.9 rebounds per game in 50 contests for Washington last season.
Beal’s agent, Mark Bartelstein, is the father of Suns’ CEO Josh Bartelstein.
The Heat have been considered the most likely suitor for Beal, given Beal’s interest in the Heat and the Heat’s desire to make best use of Jimmy Butler’s remaining championship window. Just connecting the dots, Miami’s outgoing trade package could revolve around a deal with Tyler Herro as the centerpiece or alternatively a combination of Duncan Robinson and Kyle Lowry. You’d think the Wizards would also want the 18th pick in the upcoming draft.
The Suns’ cupboard of first-round picks available for trade is empty because Phoenix owes picks to the Nets as part of the Kevin Durant trade, putting them in Stepien rule hell. A combination of Deandre Ayton and Landry Shamet for Beal would work financially. — Robbins
Backstory
The Suns emerged as a serious threat for Beal in recent days. Phoenix went 45-37 last season and acquired Durant at the trade deadline, but saw its season end in the semifinals as Paul was injured.
father son doing biz lol. I think Beal is fine with either, they told him to go out to teams he wanted to go to , dont see him blocking.

That may reduce the option of VanVleet
Wizards probably want to trade him to the Suns, but the Suns may not have the assets they are looking for.

Miami at least has some picks, Phoenix has nothing to offer, Suns ain't getting him. Trading Ayton for Beal would be stupid, he's not the best big, but they have no other bigs at all.

Beals a locker room cancer at this point in my books.
His character was poisoned years ago by john wall and the pandering environment.
I still laugh when I think about Beal running spencer dinwiddie out of town in less than 90 days.
How dare a veteran point guard demonstrate leadership skills and preach team play and ball movement — especially when he was just brought in as a free agent to provide exactly that. Lolz
This is Bradley beals world spencer. You’re just living in it.
Seriously, Bradley Beal and john wall are the living embodiment of the famous woody Harrelson quote from white men can’t jump
“You’d rather look good and lose then look bad and win”

The only way the suns can babysit kd and beals fragile egos is with Chris Paul playing the role of an o.g.
If they flip on his last legs Chris Paul for still in his prime Bradley Beal they instantly get much worse.
Too many chefs in the kitchen.
They’d be pacing to be one of the most talented 8th seeds ever.
Brooklyn 2.0 in the desert.

If they get Beal without giving up Hero it's going to trigger the hell out of me.
